"You are the ones that always say Japanese are boring and they don't show personality. We see one of those and now what? All are in the opposite line!"
It's always like that on this site. Whether Japanese do what the stereotypes tell them to do, or whether they do exactly the opposite, the JT public will ALWAYS whine.

soldave - Give the shopkeepers the choice between the bases and a tourism paradise and I am sure the majority wouldn't need a long time to make a decision. Concerning the rest of the Okinawans (what you call the "minority" I guess), I remember seeing figures on whether young Okinawans would prefer to stay in Okinawa or leave. The figures, needless to say, showed that the majority would prefer to go. Why?
Don't fool yourself: the majority of the Okinawans wants the bases gone.

I think they should remain in Iraq until we are 100% of the safety of the country. Don't let the Iraqis suffer from the mistakes of the Americans. The Americans complain it costs too much to keep the troops there (both financially and in body counts)? So be it. Let this be a lesson for a country that has started and fought more wars within the last 50 years than any other country on the planet.

"After reading Marx they should read modern history for China, North Korea, Cuba, the Soviet Union, Albania, East Germany and the Eastern Bloc countries to see how well Karl's ideas were put to practical application by people. Just for a hint as to what might happen."
And which one of those countries did indeed put into practice Karl's ideas?
Yup, none of them.
